“What did you do as a child that made the hours pass like minutes? Herein lies the key to your earthly pursuits” - Carl Jung

When I paint I forget all about time and space. I’m in the moment with the creative energy flowing through me. It’s beautiful.

It has been like this since I was a child. The only subject in school where I felt that time just disappeared was art... so this quote from Carl Jung really resonates with me!

Hello!

I'm Osa Rosti and I was born in Sweden but for the last 20 years I have called many different parts of the world home. I now live and work in Sicily/Italy.

I'm a mixed media artist and I work in both 2D and 3D. I create original and unique art and home decor pieces.

To create my sculptures I reclaim materials that have been discarded like plastic, metal, wood and cardboard to build structures that later I cover with my own developed composite material based on papier-mache (paper pulp) and wood paste.

Colors are important to me: I use a very vibrant color palette because I love the energizing impact that colors have on the human psyche.

Over the years I have taken part in several exhibitions around the world and you can find my work in many private collections. I sell my work...
